CHAPTER 14 - PERFECT GIRLFRIEND

ASHER'S POV

By the time we stepped out of the vintage car paradise, it was about twenty eight minutes to seven and but was dark outside. Left to Aaron and I, we don't even want to leave but Nicole also made a reservation for seven and I don't want to waste her money and effort.

"Wow Asher, your girlfriend is amazing and I am so glad that I decided to spend the day with you." He said excitedly but even if he didn't show up at my place today, I would have called him after I got the ticket. It has been both our dream to visit this place, so there is no way I would have done this alone.

"You can say that again man, Nicole is really special. I mean I can't remember the last time I had so much fun, this was really fun and to think she booked the entire space for us, that's crazy." I am beyond amazed by what she was able to organize from prison.

"I know right, she's really a keeper and I am happy for you." He said as we entered into the car and I started driving.

"I am happy too, you know after what happened with Sarah, I didn't think that I would find someone that will love me or get me, so I am really thankful." Honestly, Nicole is a ray of sunshine, I just want her to get out of jail and everything will be perfect. "Today turned out to be nothing like I expected when I woke up this morning and to think the day is not over yet, there is still more."

"I swear, that's a five star restaurant and I am sure that the food will be great, you need to seriously thank Nicole for this amazing day when you see her."

"Of course, I sure will." If she was out here with me, I know just the right way to thank her but with her locked up, I guess a simple thank you will suffice.

"Do you get to see her anytime you want?" I wish that's the case.

"Nope, I only see her on Thursday's during her therapy session which is only for one hour and on the weekends when I go for visiting." I hate that there is so much restrictions around our relationship, I just want to be free to love her openly, the fact that we spend only one hour together is so frustrating.

"Wow, that's serious. That's not enough, how do you guys cope? I think you should intensify more effort in convincing her to leave prison because how will you guys make it work with all the restrictions, it's almost like you guys are in two different worlds." He is actually right, there are many things we can't do with each other while she's locked up there.

I want her out as soon as possible but I don't want to pressure her because that will make me look selfish, especially because she has already explained to me the reason why she wants to be here. Forcing her to leave will make me look unreasonable and insensitive and that's not who I am but never the less, I will still talk to her.

"You are right, I will try to convince her without sounding desperate and I hope that she will see reason with me." I know that she's trying to keep her brother safe but she's practically wasting her life away while the people that hurt and ruined her life her walking freely, living a good life and probably hurting more people.

"I hope so too."

I pulled into the parking lot of Kings and queens restaurant, as soon as I parked the car, Aaron and I stepped out because it's already five minutes after seven o'clock... I have never been to this restaurant before, although I have heard about it.

Sarah told me about it, she wanted me to take her there when it first opened but with our busy schedule and lifestyle, we didn't get around to actually go and it's kind of weird that I am here without her but I can't turn this down.

We entered the restaurant and the first question that popped into my mind is, "Who the fuck owns this restaurant."

"I will like to know as well, wow."

The restaurant is classy as fuck and the whole place is decorated to perfection, the interior is matured and classy. Every item and furniture is tastefully and thoughtfully placed, it's just wow.

"Hi, good evening. Welcome to Kings and queens restaurant, where you will be treated like royalty... Do you have a reservation?" I have heard that you can't eat here without a reservation and I can see why, it's not crowded like other restaurants but every single table is currently occupied and I am beginning to wonder if our reservations was made correctly because there is no available table in sight or do we have to wait for someone to go?

"Yes I do, I think it was made under Beckham, Asher Beckham." I informed.

"Oh Mr Beckham, I am really sorry for wasting your time. Please come with me." He said immediately I mentioned my name and he didn't even bother to check his iPad to be sure.

"It's fine." I said tentatively because I have no idea what that was about. It was almost like he knows me or something.

Aaron and I followed him quietly but instead of taking us to a vacant table, he lead us to an elevator. Maybe there is another section somewhere with more available tables since the grand floor is obviously occupied.

As soon as we stepped out of the elevator, I expected to see another section with people eating and a few vacant tables but I was wrong, instead I saw a few rooms with VIP boldly written on the door.

We entered one of them and it feels like paradise. "Wow, this is beautiful." I blurted out while taking in the beauty of the room.

It has only one table with two chairs in it, there is a huge window by the side and it has a good view of the city, it's pretty dark outside and everything looks beautiful. There is also a TV and I can hear music playing softly in the background... I am just lost for words, the owner of this place is really creative.

"Are you okay with this place because if you are not, I can change it. We have other options." The guy that brought us in asked.

"This is perfect, thanks." Aaron and I sat down.

"Okay then, give me a few minutes. I will be with you shortly."

This place is incredible and honestly, if there is anything more than five star, this restaurant certainly deserves it.

"You like this place right?" I asked when I noticed that Aaron has not said anything since we got in.

"Of course I do but are you not a tad bit worried about how much the food will cost? I mean the restaurant is huge and classy and there is the whole VIP treatment, I don't think we can afford here." Aaron said worriedly and I understand his worries.

"I see what you mean but maybe Nicole asked them to put us here like she did with the private tour a while ago but that doesn't mean we can't afford this place. It's fancy yes but I have money, I can definitely afford it." I mean I might not be a billionaire yet but I am doing great financially, so Aaron has nothing to worry about.

"You know, sometimes I forget that you are rich. You don't go out and have fun and you are very prudent, so it's easy to forget your financial capabilities." Well he is right, I am not exactly a big spender.

I was about to say something when the guy returned with a bottle of wine and ice bucket, we are yet to order and he is already bringing us something.

"Ummm, we haven't ordered yet." I pointed out.

"Yes I know, it's on the house and so is everything you will be having tonight. Feel free to order for anything, the chef is at your disposal... My name is Noah and I am at your service tonight." This is absolutely crazy, I can't believe Nicole is capable of doing all of this.

"Okay, thanks." Noah opened the bottle of wine and served us while Aaron and I looked through the menu.

"I will have a smoky steak with Cajun potatoes and spicy slaw." Aaron immediately made his order.

"Okay, what about you sir?" Noah turned to me after writing Aaron's order down.

"Can I have rib-eye steak with red wine and pastrami sauce and a side of creamy mashed potatoes." I ordered while Noah wrote it down.

"Okay Sir, I will be back shortly." Noah said before hurrying away.

"Wow, your girlfriend is perfect and I am going to have a blast." Aaron said excitedly just as he picked up his wine glass... I can tell that I will be stupidly full again like I was in the morning because after this, I will definitely go for a dessert.

I smiled at him as I picked up my wine glass as well. "Cheers to a perfect girlfriend and a wonderful evening." Today has been fucking amazing and I feel like a fucking king.
